“Julia is a hard-working, driven and inspiring leader who really cares about the people she works with. She is a passionate advocate for equal education opportunities for all children and has been instrumental in improving the standard of computing education in the UK. It is not surprising that Julia has such a wide and supportive network given her enthusiasm and expertise in the education sector, as well as her attitude and approach to working with others. I learned an enormous amount whilst working with Julia and am immensely grateful to her for all the support and encouragement I received.”
